PART II
RULE 12B-25 (B) AND (C)
If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or
expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the
following should be completed. (Check appropriate box.)
|X| (a) The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form
could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;
|X| (b) The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report
on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, Form 11-K or Form N-SAR, or portion thereof will be
filed on or before the 15th calendar day following the prescribed due date;
or the subject quarterly report or transition report on Form 10-Q, or portion
thereof will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the
prescribed due date; and
|_|(c) The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c)
has been attached if applicable.
PART III
NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K and Form
10-KSB, Form 20-F, Form 11-K, Form 10-Q and Form 10-QSB, Form N-SAR or the
transition report portion thereof could not be filed within the prescribed time
period. (Attach extra sheets if needed.)
The Registrant has recently and until immediately prior to the filing date
hereof been engaged in negotiating and, in certain cases, consummating various
acquisitions and dispositions. The nature of such activities, critical to the
Registrant's business operations, precluded a complete and accurate filing of
the Registrant's Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB without disclosure thereof and
the proximity of such activities to the filing date and the significant time
demands placed by such activities on the Registrant's management team who are
responsible for preparing such report precluded timely filing thereof with the
disclosure of such activities. As a result, the Registrant is unable, without
unreasonable effort and expense, to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB
for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2000 within the prescribed period.
The Registrant believes that Form 10-QSB will be filed on or before the
fifth calendar day following the due date.

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act
of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the
registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no,
identify report(s).
|X| Yes |_| No
(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations
from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the
earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
|X| Yes |_| No
If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively
and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.
The Registrant will report a one-time gain from the sale of its European
subsidiaries of $2,060,000. The prior year's balances will be restated to
reflect this sale in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
However, other than the reported gain from the sale, the remainder of the items
contained in the results of operations are comparable.
